Doesn’t want his 15 minutes
February 27th, 2005
Gary Brolsma is a 19-year-old pudgy geek with glasses. He can also lip synch to a Romania pop tune. Sitting at his computer desk, he captured a video of himself on a webcam singing Dragostea Din Tei while waving his arms and making faces. It is now on the Internet courtesy of a friend. Millions have seen it. So Gary is now famous. Except he, being a self-conscious 19-year-old pudgy geek with glasses, doesn’t want to be famous.
Having read the article, I had see first hand how bad it was. And yes, it is funny and embarrassing.
As the techno music played through my laptop’s speakers, Claire came running over to see what was going on. She stuck her face in front of the LCD and yelled “Daddy singing! Daddy singing!”
